Disciples of the Buddha presents images of the eight surviving "Lohan" statues -- remnants of one of the most renowned works of Eastern art. The complete original work consisted of sixteen or eighteen statues, and was a consummate achievement of the art of sculpture.
Chogyam Trungpa's lucid introductory commentary illuminates and enriches our perception of the Chinese I-Chou Lohan statues as sacred images of meditation.
Disciples of the Buddha also includes The Torch of Precious Jewels -- a Sadhana of the Buddha and Sixteen Arhats by Dudjom Rinpoche, which celebrates the legendary Disciples -- protectors of Buddha's Sangha.
Robert Newman has taught at the City University of New York, the University of Colorado and Naropa University. He was president of the World Health Foundation, which has researched and developed programs for the medical uses of meditation now offered in various hospitals and medical centers.
